Reviews
Not worth the time. It does not look as good as it does in photos and there's nothing much to see. A very small area. But it's well maintained. I guess this will be worth visiting only if you're a historian.
This place is well maintained. Museum is inside the fortress which has several sections with a lot of historical information.
You are not allowed to take any photos unfortunately. Parking is available.
Historical
An old Dutch fort located at the heart of Matara city. Nothing much to see outside, but the Museum has some valuable stuff, including the famous Panakaduwa copper plate. Archeology Dept maintain it really well, and entrance is free.
The most important thing here is not the fort. 4000 years old human skeleton. "මැණික් හාමි".
